I am trying to use jquery.ui autocomplete https://jqueryui.com/autocomplete/#remote in my Laravel 5.7 project.
It seems that the jquery.ui.autocomplete package expect jsonp not standard json. I have been creating a new ApiResource for all of my resources, so I would like to also use Api Resource to response to the autocomplete request.
How can I change the response type from json to jsonp when using Api Resources?
Here is home my controller looks like
class DriversController extends Controller
{
/**
* Display the specified reservation.
*
* @param int $vehicleId
*
* @return App\Resources\VehicleResources
*/
public function find($term)
{
$topics = Topic::where('fullname', 'like', $term. '%')->get();
return new TopicResource($topics);
}
}
Here is my ApiResponse class
class TopicResource extends Resource
{
/**
* Transform the resource into an array.
*
* @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* @return array
*/
public function toArray($request)
{
return [
// return something cool
];
}
/**
* Returns other attributes to the request
*
* @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
*
* @return array
*/
public function with($request)
{
return [
'status' => 'success',
];
}
}
